Wm. Dayton a logger, while work
ing in Stimmerman camp about Al
legany received injuries yesterday
that resulted in his death about a
half an hour after the accident.
The unfortunate man, in company
with two others, was standing on a
log near the landing when another
log came flying down the chute
toward them. They saw their dan
ger and started to run. Dayton,
in some manner, missed his foot
ing aDd fell between the log on
which he had been standing and the
other and was carried the full
length of the stationary log, having
his legs and arms broken and being
otherwise badly mangled.
A messenger was at once dispatch
ed for medical aid, but the man
died before assistance could be ren
dered him. T. J. Lewis, the under
taker, was at Allegany, when the
news of tbe accident reached that
place, he having gone there with
the body of David McClay, and
having some knowledge of medi
cine he immediately started for the
scene of the accident with the in.
tention of rendering first aid to the-
injuerd man, but the messenger of
death was before him and the only
help he could give was to prepare
the body for the funeral.
The remains were brought to
town this morning and will be bur
ied nnder the auspices of the local
Aerie of Eagles, of which order the
deceased was a member of ouly one
month’s standing. The funeral will
be held in the M. E. church at 2 p.
m. tomorrow, and the remains in.
terred in the I. O. O. F. cemetery.
Rev. Chas. T. McPherson will con
duct the services.
William Dayton was well known
here, having resided on the bay and
ia Tenmile, where he owned a
claim, for the past four or five years.
He was a native of Wisconsin and

NOTE A N D CO M M ENT.
Already there bas been a frost
throughrut the Adirondack region
which nipped tomatoes, potatoes
and apples. A weather bureau with
an automatic apparatus for pre
dicting early frost might be estab
lished on the top of one of the
mountains.
The authorities of Mt. Vernon,
New York, have found a way to put
a stop to the use of soft coal by the
locomotives running on the railroads
through that place. They proposed
to arrest the engineers, if it had to
be done with the aid of tbe militia.
The result is coke is burned while
a train is running through that city
and the smoke nuisance is abated.
